Wednesday night – different friends

Lots going on .. i’m very busy with the deployment of our new computer at MIT… We’re having a hack-athon next week… And we’re working hard to make sure things are set up for that. Always kind of stressful getting things working at the last minute

I did take a break at lunch to go meet my very good friend David… David retired from IBM several years ago. He’s now doing all sorts of good across the state… Mentoring kids on math and hiking and 3-D printing. He’s a real inspiration to me

Tonight after work we had our spring meeting of the Vermont Academy of science and engineering (vase) Out reach meeting… Great group of people… We’re working on how we tune our grants an award programs to best help the state. We now give away roughly $20,000 a year for in classroom an afterschool science Like first robotics.I feel really good about what we’ve done there.. Still lots of room for improvement though.…

Around 930 tonight I went out to meet my friend Ryan and some of our friends for a private showing of the movie “Jojo rabbit”… It was hosted by the lamp factory… It is one crazy weird movie. Lots of things to like… But also very disturbing. I don’t want to give any of it away here… But I definitely think it’s worth seeing. It was fun being there with some of my really good friends. It occurred to me afterwards that we were all Jewish… I’ll have to see it to understand why that’s so weird…. Thanks to Lee the owner of land factory for letting us meet there. He’s an awesome guy. Thanks to Friend Ryan for setting the whole thing up.

OK… It’s midnight in time for sleep. More tomorrow

nite all, nite Sam

Sunday night – snow day

Very nice inside day. It snowed all day. We don’t have a huge amount of snow but it’s nice to have everything well covered. I think we probably got about 6 inches in the last couple of days.

Diane and I took the morning to catch up on household business and work stuff. It was nice to try to align our calendars for the next couple of months.

Mid day I went with Kyle and Hunter to stones throw to see my new favorite Band… The warm dogs. Lots of friends in that band including our old roommate Eliot, Nick, Will, Brandon… They play all kinds of music from rockabilly to blue grass to the grateful dead.… Stones Throw is turning out to be a nice Gathering spot for the neighborhood. So lots of friends there too.…

It was the first public place I tried my new cartoon I track.… It worked pretty well

Around 2:45 o’clock people started showing up. For the Arup Logan program that Marcie had planned. Unfortunately Marci got sick so Diane did the whole thing on her own. She did a fantastic job. We had a full house for a two hour restorative yoga and essential oil’s session.. It was so relaxing!… The theme was eyesight and vision as in “2020”… Another great place to try my new eyes.

Right after that I headed into town to meet up with some of my Bernie man friends. Two of our tribe were in visiting from out of town. We met at farmhouse… Then we went to see our friend Amy’s art project.

I can’t show the art here because it’s a commercial project it hasn’t been released… But here’s a bunch of my friends carrying on

OK… Tomorrow starts another busy week. So more from then

Nite all, nite sam
